.SH PURPOSE
SSYR   performs the symmetric rank 1 operation

where alpha is a real scalar, x is an n element vector and A is an
n by n symmetric matrix.

.SH ARGUMENTS
.TP 7
UPLO   - CHARACTER*1.
On entry, UPLO specifies whether the upper or lower
triangular part of the array A is to be referenced as
follows:

UPLO = \(aqU\(aq or \(aqu\(aq   Only the upper triangular part of A
is to be referenced.

UPLO = \(aqL\(aq or \(aql\(aq   Only the lower triangular part of A
is to be referenced.

Unchanged on exit.
.TP 7
N      - INTEGER.
On entry, N specifies the order of the matrix A.
N must be at least zero.
Unchanged on exit.
.TP 7
ALPHA  - REAL            .
On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha.
Unchanged on exit.
.TP 7
X      - REAL             array of dimension at least
( 1 + ( n - 1 )*abs( INCX ) ).
Before entry, the incremented array X must contain the n
element vector x.
Unchanged on exit.
.TP 7
INCX   - INTEGER.
On entry, INCX specifies the increment for the elements of
X. INCX must not be zero.
Unchanged on exit.
.TP 7
A      - REAL             array of DIMENSION ( LDA, n ).
Before entry with  UPLO = \(aqU\(aq or \(aqu\(aq, the leading n by n
upper triangular part of the array A must contain the upper
triangular part of the symmetric matrix and the strictly
lower triangular part of A is not referenced. On exit, the
upper triangular part of the array A is overwritten by the
upper triangular part of the updated matrix.
Before entry with UPLO = \(aqL\(aq or \(aql\(aq, the leading n by n
lower triangular part of the array A must contain the lower
triangular part of the symmetric matrix and the strictly
upper triangular part of A is not referenced. On exit, the
lower triangular part of the array A is overwritten by the
lower triangular part of the updated matrix.
.TP 7
LDA    - INTEGER.
On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared
in the calling (sub) program. LDA must be at least
max( 1, n ).
Unchanged on exit.
